Just lately, I have found that some of my text macros are coming up on screen all on their own. For example, I have a text macro that when I say sign off, my name comes up on screen automatically. This has been coming up on screen all on its own without me uttering anything!

It got so bad with this particular text macro (my name) coming on screen, at one point there was virtually a whole paragraph which was full of my name from that macro which came up on screen without me saying anything. In the end, I had to delete the macro because it was so bad.

Now all of a sudden, I have one of my e-mail addresses (text macro) coming up all the time, all on its own without any utterance whatsoever. I have 4 e-mail accounts, all with different addresses of course.  With this text macro, I would say a name and the whole e-mail address would come up on screen, saving me time dictating it separately.

As I say now, one of the addresses is coming up all on its own with not a word being said! I do not really want to delete this text macro because I need it and I'm sure if I get rid of it anyway, one of the other text macros will come up all on its own just as this one did after I got rid of my 'sign off' macro.

Can anybody tell me why this is happening on how I can stop this from happening?

1. The Samson Q7 combo saver package with the cable and windscreen is reasonably priced, highly accurate and very noise canceling. It has two possibly minor downsides. First of all, it is bulky which may or may not be a problem you consider you need to be able to move from one desk to another. And as discussed it does not have an on/mute switch. WSR when using the WSRToolkit has a microphone toggle for all on/off by using the Control and Windows key in the lower left keyboard. See this at:
2. You may need to it the Andrea USB Sound pod if the sound quality from the built in soundcard is not well shielded and introduces electronic noise. For Tablet PC and this microphone we recommend the Andrea USB-SA because of its small size.

2. The Buddy StylusMic 7G USB Microphone is highly practical for Tablet PCs. It connects through the USB Port and actually the connection access a holder for the stylus/microphone. In addition, it has programmable buttons which allow you to move from one field to the next or add text macros. See this at:

Hi people

i'm new to speech development and i'm learning as i go forward.

i'm developing an application using system.speech namespace with some simple functionality.

i'm using the following method to display what is recognized in a text box, this part works fine:

        void spRecognizer_SpeechRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
        {
            textBox2.Text = e.Result.Text;
        }

also, i'm using this method to create a grammar builder to create some grammars (commands)

        private Grammar CreateSampleGrammar()
        {
            Choices commandChoices = new Choices("Wikipedia", "Google", "Yahoo", "MSN");
            GrammarBuilder grammarBuilder = new GrammarBuilder("Search");
            grammarBuilder.Append(commandChoices);
            Grammar g = new Grammar(grammarBuilder);
            g.Name = "Available programs";
            return g;
        }

and when i click on the button, the grammar is loaded:

        private void button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            SpeechRecognizer spRecognizer = new SpeechRecognizer();
            Grammar g = CreateSampleGrammar();

            spRecognizer.LoadGrammar(g);
        }

i should mention that before i click on this button, when i say , for example: Search Google, in the text box it appears search google ( not all of the time, but most of the times its something similar). but after i click the button, when the grammar is loaded, then, when i say for example search google, on the speech recognition bar ( on the top of screen) it displays "Search Google", but nothing is typed in the text box.

 it seems to me that, the second time when i say "search wikipeda", the engine recognize the phrase as a command, a command like "Open Notepad" (which opens notepad). correct me if i'm wrong...

if that's the case, that's what want, i'd like the application to take an action upon recognizing my command, like when i say "Search Google", with the grammar loaded, google.com should be opened in the system's default web explorer.

 how can i achieve this?

appreciating any help in advance
